got my ballot today!

I'll be completing the ballot tomorrow, with my son as my witness, and dropping it off at the BoE Thursday morning.

It's only the 2nd time I've been in my car since mid-March. can hardly wait.

I have heard repeatedly they are rejected for things as simple as a missing signature. Not having seen the ballot I don't know where and how many times you have to sign it. I am going to try to find a sample to post. Happy Voting!

it's fairly simple and the instructions are clear. I will sign it, in the presence of a witness. I made sure I have a black ball point pen. A missing signature would not be a simple thing and I would expect that to be rejected. I'll probably go over it 3 times to be sure I've done everything right. It's so important and the republicans are doing anything and everything they can to foul this election and buck the will of the people. it's important to get it right, get it counted, get it turned in as early as possible.
